静脉溶栓联合导管碎栓和切栓治疗急性大面积肺栓塞

目的评价静脉溶栓联合导管碎栓和切栓治疗急性大面积肺栓塞的临床疗效和安全性。方法对19例急性大面积肺栓塞患者，采用下腔静脉滤器置入、肺动脉导管碎栓和静脉溶栓加低分子肝素抗凝治疗，19例中4例加用了Straub Rotarex导管血栓旋切术。结果19例共行21次治疗。18例经介入治疗后胸闷、紫绀症状均明显改善，肺动脉中央分支血流恢复通畅，血氧饱和度由术前平均86％（74％～96％）上升到治疗后的平均97％（94％～100％）。肺动脉压力从术前的（334-5）mmHg（1mmHg=0．133kPa）下降到术后的（254-5）mmHg（t=13．2，P〈0．01）。l例双侧肺动脉主干大块血栓栓塞的患者，介入治疗无效，后经胸外科手术取栓未能成功，患者死亡。4例成功地采用了Straub Rotarex旋切治疗肺动脉血栓，未出现并发症。结论采用导管碎栓和血栓旋切等介入技术联合静脉溶栓抗凝治疗，是治疗急性大面积肺动脉栓塞的有效而且安全的方法。     

Insulin reduces the BOLD response but is without effect on the VEP during presentation of a visual task in humans.

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) based on blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) contrast has become an invaluable tool in the assessment of in vivo neuronal activation. Quantification of the BOLD response is determined by the hemodynamic and metabolic changes that occur in response to brain stimulation. However, these changes may vary by changes in insulin, a hormone known to be vasoactive in some tissues. To determine if insulin has an effect on fMRI, we measured the BOLD response to a visual stimulus in five normal volunteers in which insulin was first suppressed and then brought to a high physiological concentration. In addition, we also examined the effect of insulin on activation of the visual cortex as measured by the visual-evoked potential (VEP). We found that the BOLD response measured in the presence of insulin (serum insulin=236+/-29 pmol/L) was significantly lower (P<0.001) than that measured in its absence (serum insulin=8+/-2 pmol/L). Insulin was without effect on P100 amplitude or latency acquired in the presence or absence of insulin in 28 subjects using the same stimulus as that used for the fMRI experiments. Our observations suggest that insulin may have effects on cerebral blood flow and/or metabolism that affect the BOLD signal that are independent of its effects on neuronal activation identified by event related potentials (ERP). These findings highlight the complexity that must be considered when interpreting differences in fMRI responses between groups of subjects that differ in insulin concentration and/or insulin sensitivity.     

派立明与贝特舒联合应用对降眼压的临床观察

目的评价1.00%派立明(AZOPT)与0.25%贝特舒点眼液每日两次点眼对原发性开角型青光眼、高眼压症及抗青光眼术后高眼压的降眼压效果及安全性。方法31例患者51只眼纳入为期2个月的前瞻性研究。在停用其他抗青光眼药物足够长的时间后测量基础值,用药后每2周复查一次共4次,同时观察眼局部及全身副作用。结果用药前眼压为23.85±1.80 mmHg,4次随访眼压下降均值6.55 mmHg(6.06～7.04),眼压下降率27.50%(26.62～28.59%)。少数病例出现烧灼感、视物模糊、口苦等症状,均为轻度能耐受,对视力、眼底无影响。结论派立明与贝特舒联合用药具有稳定的降眼压效果,具良好耐受性。     

Two novel gastric cancer-associated genes identified by differential display

AIM To clone novel gastric cancer-associated genes and investigate their roles in gastric cancer occurrence.METHODS A method called differential display was used which allows the identification of differentially expressed genes by using PAGE to display PCR-amplified cDNA fragments between gastric cancer cells and normal gastric mucosa cells. These fragments were cloned into plasmid vector pUC18. Homology analysis was made after sequencing these fragments.RESULTS Two novel genes were identified compared with sequences from GenBank. One was registered with the AD number AF 051783. In situ hybridization showed that these two novel genes expressed specifically in gastric cancer tissues.CONCLUSION The two novel genes obtained by differential display were confirmed to be gastric cancer-associated genes using in situ hybridization.     

Effects of Intraventricular Injection of Calmodulin Antagonist （Trifluoperazine） on Pregnancy in Rats

Injection of TFP (a specific antagonist of CaM) into the lateral ventricles of the rat brain on the fourth day of pregnancy causes marked antifertility effect in 83% of the rats (0% in the control group). Examination with the pontamone blue reaction for the implantation elucidated that the antifertitity effect was due to the blockage of implantation of the follicle. Injection of TFP into the lateral ventricles of the brain markedly reduced the concentration of CaM in hypothalamus, ovary and uterus. Serum progesterone was also reduced. However, injection glven on day 7 was ineffective to terminate the pregnancy. Injection given on certain time of pregnancy was able to reduce the cellular CaM content and to cause antifertitity. This finding demonstrated that CaM played an important rote during the course of pregnancy.
